broken progress bar in gensplash?

So i am installing my dream polished distro right now and so far everything is great. all the hardware works, gnome is great, wireless, the works. so now that the dirty work was out of hte way i figured i'd do some polishing to make it look nice. so first i did the graphical grub patch and it came out just fine and dandy. then i tried the gensplash, followed the wiki, installed the kernel26beyond and it works, but the progress bar doesn't.

searching this forum i found some patches from 2004 that i dont want to apply because who knows how many things changed since then.

so the question is...how do i make the stupid progress bar load?

Re: broken progress bar in gensplash?

make sure you have "initscripts-gensplash" installed:

pacman -S initscripts-gensplash

Then you have to edit back your rc.conf, rc.local scripts (originals saved under rc.conf.pacsave, rc.local.pacsave)
